Chapter 139 - 139 Finding The Treasure 2
“Oh wow! Touching the sharks fin?’
Pei Yiwu let out a sigh of relief and kept her eyes locked on the girl.
Lu Yang seemed to have some skills.
Different from herself, who enjoyed extreme sports.
Pei Yiwu was engaged in a battle with the shark to seek a certain level of excitement, while Lu Yang was riding above the shark.
The one-minute struggle with the shark felt extremely long. At the thirty-second mark, a notification sound signaled the completion of the task. The shark disappeared, and everything returned to normal.
Wen Jian looked at it with a horrified expression, murmuring in her mind:
Is this too intense? It feels like our lives were on the line. If we develop psychological trauma, can we receive compensation for mental injuries?
Even the fiercely competitive female idol didn’t want to take such risks. Pei Yiwu walked up to the sweaty Lu Yang and Lu Mingyu, praising them incessantly, “That was amazing, snatching the fish from the shark’s mouth!”
Lu Yang lowered her gaze modestly and said, “Thank you.”
The staff announced the completion of the task, and the next one was Zhou Moli and Lin Xinmeng’s terrain exploration.
To promote the product, all camera angles in the live broadcast room focused on the terrain exploration scene, while the others were left to their own devices.
Lu Mingyu handed water to Lu Yang and the others, and they sat down to rest. He stood silently by her side, not saying a word, which felt somewhat strange.
“Brother, let me see your hand,” Lu Yang said.
She checked his pulse and carefully examined his complexion, making sure there was nothing serious before feeling relieved.
Pei Yiwu was too exhausted and fell asleep directly on the table.
The matter that had been troubling her for half a month resurfaced.
The frames of the images played like a revolving lantern in her mind.
The fluctuating sea level, cheers, the sound of the waves…
Next to the girl from the Hundred Flowers Garden that appeared last time, there was now a boy, one crying and one smiling.
In the end, the illusory and mechanical voice scraped against her heart like sandpaper, one after another, causing her pain that almost took her breath away.
“Awakening of the Cannon Fodder, loading complete! Congratulations on your awakening. To celebrate, a small portion of the Oracle attributes is bestowed upon you.”
Pei Yiwu abruptly woke up.
Lu Yang handed her water, “Did you have a nightmare?”
“What about Lu Mingyu?” Pei Yiwu asked nervously.
“My brother went to the restroom,” Lu Yang scrutinized her, “Do you need something from my brother?”
“No,” Pei Yiwu shook her head absentmindedly, her words lacking credibility, “There’s nothing.”
Her heart felt like it was being pressed by a stone, growing increasingly restless, resembling a person with nervous breakdown.
Lu Yang wasn’t skilled at comforting others, so she simply said, “It’s good that nothing’s wrong.”
Pei Yiwu felt a bitter and sour feeling in her heart, her voice dripping like water through ice, soft and cold, murmuring, “It shouldn’t be real…
Lu Yang said, “What did you dream about? You can tell me. Although I haven’t studied psychology, I have a good understanding of the human body structure. Maybe I can help you calm down.”
Pei Yiwu wasn’t sure, she slowly lifted her head and looked into Lu Yang’s dark and calm eyes. Inadvertently, her anxious heart seemed to find some tranquility.
“I had a very strange dream, probably something no one would believe,” Pei Yiwu hesitated, then began to recount, “I dreamt that you and Lu Mingyu were playing in the Hundred Herbs Garden when you were kids. And then, I dreamt that Lu Mingyu fell into the sea and died while trying to save Qin Yitan. After his death, many people falsely accused him and spread rumors, saying he committed suicide. Initially, Qin Yitan wanted to reveal the truth, but his elite team behind him lacked compassion and concealed the incident.”
Seeing Lu Yang’s gaze deepen, Pei Yiwu thought she was being dismissed as talking nonsense and quickly added, “It’s just a dream, definitely not real. Lu Mingyu and Qin Yitan are archenemies. How could he possibly save him? And it’s too bizarre. Dreaming about the past of you two and foreseeing your brother’s fate. No one would believe it.”
Lu Yang firmly said, “I believe it.”
Pei Yiwu exclaimed in disbelief, “Do you really believe it?”
Lu Yang responded, “I do.”
The feeling of being trusted by someone was subtle. Pei Yiwu grabbed Lu
Yang’s hand excitedly and said, “Thank you!”
So, it turned out that Lu Mingyu didn’t die trying to save Lin Xinmeng but Qin Yitan.
Pei Yiwu hesitated and said, “But Lu Mingyu and Qin Yitan are enemies. Lu
Mingyu saving Qin Yitan is impossible, right?”
“A life is a life, grudges are grudges,” Lu Yang said, “Although my brother is quite abnormal, he has a strong sense of morality.”
Pei Yiwu remained silent, hearing her sister describe her brother as abnormal for the first time.
“If it’s true, what should we do to prevent such a thing from happening?” she finally asked..
